The other day a man got aboard OF a
train on the Detroit and Lansing road, &C
c%ompanied by a big dog, and in due course
of time the baggageman walked back into
the car and said:
"Mister, that dog must go into the bag

lowed to ride in passenger cars" e.
"Well, well wait and hear what the
conductor says. He is a friend of mine,
and if he says the dog can't ride here, that
will settle it." .... s..
It was half an hour later before the con-
ductor, accompanied by the baggageman,
got around to the man.

nounced the conductor. = s'
